I voted for the perceived lesser evil : Christianity.

I am not really familiar with the other religions; but from what I see the best places to live on Earth have a mostly Christian tradition. Western Europe, Northern America, Australia...

Is that due to Christianity per se though?

It's primarily due to enlightenment, and the right of the individual.
I guess that Christianity is the most compatible, or maybe the least contradictory to these ideas.

If Islam had kept its science friendliness from during the Golden Age, maybe I would see things differently. But the brand of Islam currently en vogue is not my cup of tea.

I am not familiar enough with Buddhism and Hinduism to judge them. But if we look at how many people are trying to leave South-East Asia to live in Europe, America or Australia, vs. how few people from these places want to live in South-East Asia, I guess that it does not really speak in favour of the predominantly Buddhist or Hindu places.
